Was there a better way to spend my last hours of 2013 than to be with this bestie of mine?
#thinknot #happy2014
Jess and her roomies had a New Years/Going Away party for Jess! Although we left 30 minutes til midnight to race home for the next pic... It was great company to spend the last of 2013 with!
Happy New Year Mirramont Style! Fireworks from a Christmas tree = burning tree by the lake! So cool. #newtradtion #xoxo
So our awesome neighbors each year place fireworks in a Christmas tree next to the lake. All the neighbors meet around the lake to watch it and you hear everyone yell "HAPPY NEW YEAR!" It was pretty awesome! Plus... it was only a walk away from our house aka our bed to sleep in!
My Mom. Heart. 2014 Here we come!
Isn't she just the prettiest?! I will probably have to steal that shirt from her closest too! She always throws great parties for her friends... this is where I get my entertaining and event skills from! She had a New Years Party so we dropped by to eat and run!
Just said "see ya later" to one of my favorite peeps in the whole world! For the next 6 months @JessKateNamy will be serving our Savior in a far off place and a piece of me will be missing but I couldn't be happier for her or more proud of her! Love you Jess! (hand shake) Whoop Whoop!
Yep, Jess left on Jan 2 for YWAM. She will spend 3 months in Hawaii at DTS (discipleship training school) and then 3 months in Jordan spreading the Good News. So happy for this experience she gets to have. Selfishly I don't like her gone but... I get it!
Kindle case made from an old book... check
Yup, I got a Kindle Paperwhite and absolutely love it! I needed a case though and buying one is too overrated so I went to goodwill and found a book with a cool cover, ripped the pages out, and made it my own! The outside tape since then has fallen off so you can see the book title... so everyone will forever think I am reading "Student Nurse" haha
Finishing up book #3 on Ruth and thinking about my Tuesday night homegirls and how much they have pushed me to grow more everyday whether they know it or not! Jess, KK, Kinny, Amanda, Bethany, Ashley, BPod, Victoria - I thank God for blessing me with yall in my life! #lineageofgrace
Last semester (like I look at my life in semesters anymore...) I used to go to small group with these girls on Tuesday night. We started reading Lineage of Grace which are 5 small books on women in the Bible, all put into 1. I loved that small group and seeing them each week and growing more in my faith with them. I decided in 2014 that I was going to have to "step away" from the group because Steven and I were going to be in a couple group and I couldn't commit to both. I am lucky that I get to see these girls at InsideOut on a regular basis though! God is good.
FaceTimed with Jess tonight in small group! It was like she was really there... she even had her own chair! #westillmissyou
This was our first time in small group without Jess so what better way to start it off than surprising the girls with a little facetime action? We talked to Jess awhile and then we put the computer in a chair facing the group and she listened while we had our discussion. It was pretty special!
This precious little boy...@WendiFreeman u are one blessed mama!
Asher came with Wendi to work... isn't he just the cutest? I love this little cutie-pa-tootie! He brings so much joy! Wendi and Nick are truly blessed parents!
Fun at home date night with Rachel and James #wonderwoman #spicyuno #meatloafandmashedpotatoes LOVE YALL!
Rach and James came over and I had prepared Rachel's favorite meal... meatloaf and mashed potatoes! We introduced them to Spicy Uno (which they have now passed onto their families) and played a little game of headbandz! It was a good chill night! Love them!

Enough said. :)

Gotta feed Booti & Nora... Walking to Walmart!
Craziest snowstorm of all time hit GA that day! We only got like 3 inches of snow but you know how the south is... so we all freaked out... and we all freaked out at the same time. School buses left, people left work, people went out to get bread & water, etc. This made a gridlock effect on all of Atlanta. It was pretty insane. Luckily it only took Steven and I 2 hours to get home AND we already had ski clothes laid out for our trip in Feb so we got to do a dress rehearsal. We walked to Walmart to get dog food! It was actually really fun! I really hated it for those stuck in their cars, random places, hotels, etc for 17+ hours though. In a day or two it was all over though. Back to normal.
Snowdoggies!!
They loved 1. having us home for a couple of days 2. that we walked to get them food or they would be starving 3. that we took them out to play in the snow! They could have played out there forever!
Walmart Trip #2 #beedoubleedoubleareyouin?
Think country song and you will get it!
#mylife14
The snow happened on a Monday and by that Friday we were headed to MyLife14 (high school retreat) in 60 degree weather! Typical GA weather! It's a love/hate relationship!
More next month on MyLife14!
